MITRE Caldera™ Plugin: Pathfinder

Overview

Pathfinder is a Caldera plugin developed by the Center for Threat-Informed Defense. Pathfinder extends Caldera's functionality to support automated ingestion of network scanning tool output. By intelligently integrating scan data with an automated adversary emulation platform, Pathfinder will demonstrate how an adversary might use vulnerabilities in an environment to achieve their goals, highlighting a path through a network, and showing the real impact of a vulnerability for Caldera to analyze and execute against.

Pathfinder extends Caldera to do the following:

  1. Run a scan of a target network or system
  2. Upload the scan results to a running instance of Caldera
  3. Use the ingested results to draw out potential attack paths Caldera could notionally take
  4. Create workflows so that Caldera can follow the actual attack paths and execute a real attack

Getting Started

If you want to run scans with nmap directly with the pathfinder plugin make sure to install nmap on your system

Install Caldera (if you don't have it already) and clone down the pathfinder repo into the caldera/plugins folder with this command:

git clone https://github.com/center-for-threat-informed-defense/caldera_pathfinder.git pathfinder --recursive

Go into plugins/pathfinder and run pip install -r requirements.txt to install dependencies, and note that you should have nmap installed already.

After that add pathfinder to enabled plugins list in the caldera conf file for your environment and you are set to start scanning and path finding!
